Wackiest Mod on TSX You Know/Heard of

So what is the ONE wackiest mod (on TSX only), one that seems the most bizarre to you, that you know/heard of ?
(pls no naming name or this will go down the pipe )

Mine:
one member has the so-called "Circleless A" - He somehow removed the ring around
the logo on the trunk, leaving just "A"
I don't know I just find that hilarious

I think the worst mod is putting a GT spoiler on the TSX.

Well for all of you that think I should post in here I will. I have several mods that I have done that may clarify to fit in here and those mods are not even on my car anymore so you probably will never see them.

I think the person who did it is either selling or has sold his setup.

Wackiest mod? Chaning the steering wheel for one without a functioning airbag and causing the car to throw an SRS warning all the time.

I'm not trying to bash you C, but man that is just wack!

I think you misunderstand the purpose of a spoiler. Spoilers are not only used for providing downforce, but also (and more commonly) are used for reducing drag. Even a little cheapo econocar can benefit from a proper spoiler (i.e. NOT the huge ugly crap you see on most of the riced out hoopties on the road.)

hmmm don't 100% agree with you on that one... but how about those that have a staggered setup? That's pretty absurd

i was referring to the 3ft wing on the tsx, i understand the function of a spoiler, even the cosmetic application, however, noone on here is gonna be running 120+ MPH consistantly where a 3ft wing is gonna help.....

in theory on a rwd car the spoiler will creat downforce helping keep the rear tires on the ground helping with acceleration/braking.....

edit: this is coming from a guy that had the OEM spoiler on his TSX....
